XA recovery in JBossMQ

[paul.robinson]

Hello,

I noticed on the JBossTS forum the following posting:

http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=83316

This posting is off-topic in the JBossTS forum and as such won't get a response.

I would also like an answer to this query, can we discuss it here please?

Thanks,

Paul.

To make things easier, here is the origional posting:

In order to get proper crash recovery, I was advised to use JBoss Transactions in place of the built in JBoss transaction manager. But a colleague pointed out to me that the recover() method in SpyXAResource.java returns an empty list of xids.

public Xid[] recover(int arg1) throws XAException
{
if (log.isTraceEnabled())
log.trace("Recover arg1=" + arg1 + " " + this);

return new Xid[0];
}

Doesn't this mean that MQ will forget about any transactions that were left in the prepared state when a crash occurs? Will JBoss Transactions buy me anything. Our transactions span MQ (backed by Oracle) and Hibernate (also backed by Oracle).

Thanks
